This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

How a billionaire with interests in Greenland encouraged Trump to acquire the territory
How a billionaire with interests in Greenland encouraged Trump to acquire the territory
US president’s friend Ronald Lauder – who first proposed Arctic expansion – is now making deals in the island
One day during his first term, Donald Trump summoned a top aide to discuss a new idea. “Trump called me down to the Oval Office,” John Bolton, national security adviser in 2018, told the Guardian. “He said a prominent businessman had just suggested the US buy Greenland.”

The first chapter of Jayne Eyre depicts the 14 year old boy John Reed physically assaulting the 10 year old eponymous character. This was Britain in the 19th century, hardly a culture that was imported.
The idea of “imported” violence against women and girls is a deeply comforting fiction - one that allows people to avoid looking at where it actually happens: within our homes and behind closed doors.
The Violence Isn’t Imported. It’s Domestic.
